The fort has been frequently featured in the list of top Most Haunted Places in the World since a long time. It is unmistakably on the list of ghost hunters from around the globe, who come looking for their own fodder of scary tales from the country. Nevertheless, everybody has their own individual experiences to tell. The fort was built in 1573, in Alwar district in Rajasthan. According to the legend associated with the site, the local wizard was in love with the princess of Bhangarh who did not like him and spurned his advances. Determined to possess her, he turned to witchcraft and black magic and tried to woo her with a bowl of magic potion.
She in turn, understood the trick and threw the bowl against a massive boulder, which was disturbed enough with the collision. It came rolling right in front of the path of the wizard, who cursed the town that it would be destroyed, before being crushed under it. Later the town was invaded and its inhabitants, including the princess were killed and those who were left behind, abandoned the place. Since then, it is believed that spirits of those who were killed haunt the fort. Visitors and locals tell of their strange and supernatural experiences, from hearing cries to bizarre phenomenon, which makes the place very spooky.
